Need help from you guys figuring out my problem. My Bronco died on me while driving the other day. It is an 89 with the 2.9l, manual tranny, auto t-case. Reman tranny and engine installed last year. Less than 1000 miles on them. Truck only gets used during hunting season. Other than that it pretty much just sits. I do crank it at least weekly, and sometimes drive it to work. When we dropped the new motor in, all motor accessories were replaced. Also replaced fuel pump and fuel filter. All new plugs, wires, distributor etc. The day it died, I cranked it up, let it idle for a few mins, then left the house. Made it about 1 block and she just died. No spitting or sputtering. Almost like the key was turned off. Tried to restart and got nothing. The engine would turn over, but not crank. Towed it home and left for work. Next day I tried to start it again and same thing. First I checked the fuel rail, no gauge to test it, but did get good fuel at the rail. Checked the coil, tested bad with the meter, so I replaced it. Still no start?
Got the truck sitting under the carport, no clue what to check next. Please guys, give me some suggestions.
